A joke about the heavy founder of Valve, Gabe Newell, a game developer that creates great games but is terribly slow. (See Valve Time) It stems from Gabe himself saying that a certain game will be "Worth the wait" when it comes out.
It created a Youtube craze, just look it up on there.

Person 1: Half-Life 3 is taking an awfully long time to be released, and Gabe has no news...
Person 2: Hopefully it will be worth the weight!

Something or someone that is of high value.
For instance if someone is worth their weight in gold to you, then in a literal sense (assuming that person is 150 lbs.) their value would be 2,847,000 USD. (Because gold is worth about 1,300 USD per Troy ounce)

The new financial controller I hired cut down our expenses by 26%. He is definitely worth his weight in gold.
What?! 15 bucks for a drink? What, is beer here worth its weight in gold?!

when an article that was written as to be extremely insightful, groundbreaking, and mentions the word "killer app" in every other paragraph turns out to ultimately be 17 pages of shit.
Given how much paper weighs and how much 17 pages weighs, the equivalent amount of shit is pretty worthless hence, it's worth its weight in shit.
